Project Summary

The project “Cook, serve and speak English” carried out by gastronomic high schools from Poland, Turkey, Slovakia and Slovenia was based on similar inspirations of the schools to improve the quality of teaching vocational foreign language. The main aim of the project was to create a modern work tool in the form of didactic-methodological manual for English in gastronomy in a multimedia version and with the possibility of printing it out. The manual is available in a version for teachers (among others lessons drafts, tests, answer keys) and as a didactic help for students (work cards, thematic dictionary for each chapter, texts to practice reading comprehension). Thanks to creating the manual the database of materials used on lessons is going to be extended.
In order to correlate English and vocational gastronomic subjects we used the CLIL method which enabled English teachers to develop factual competences concerning gastronomy. Teachers have also improved their skills concerning IT and the knowledge gained by them was used in the project. The next aim we wanted to achieve was the ability of students to carry out evaluation of their language skills by filling in Europass Language Passport which is going to be validation of thier achievements.
By implementation of the project we improved the quality of teaching as far as voactional English is concerned, widened the database of materials used on lessons, implemented the CLIL method and increased professional qualifications of both teachers and students.
Taking part in the project helped us to improve the quality of teaching in the partner schools and arouse interest of potential employers who establish cooperation with our schools and our graduates more willingly. Thanks to implementation of the project teaching programme was supplemented with new content and forms of teaching a foreign language in gastronomy.
Dissemination of publications concerning our project and the products among schools which have a similar profile of teachinf in Europe will contribute to widen the database of Open Educational Resources for English in gastronomy.
